Default Just got 315's, pics inside
Here's a couple pics of the 315's i just put on. In that night pic the tire looks weird, like bald in one spot, but it isn't, just a bad picture, plus the tires were dirty. The rear wheels are 18x10 btw.

looks like the tire was really squeezed on there. i dont think i would run a 315 on a 10" wheel.

it wasn't sqeezed too bad, but yeah a 10 inch wheel is the smallest i would put a 315 on. My friend did it on a 9.5 but he's a dumbass, and it looked funny.

i dunno how good they are in the rain but i dont really care, the car isn't my daily so i dont plan on driving in the rain. But my friend had them on his vette and his said they were actually pretty decent in water, so we'll see. I'll prolly take it out one day in the rain just to see how they do. But man on dry street they hook GREAT and that's with a 6-spd. No more of this

I think he is saying that with the stock axle, the offset of his rims pushes them out 1" to far.

They would go on the car... just would stick out.
